Life and Soft publication in Scientific Reports

12March , 2018

Life and Soft publishes today in Nature’s Scientific Reports, in collaboration with the Université Paris-Sud and Laboratoire CERBA, a study on Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing. By analyzing massively parallel shotgun sequencing of maternal plasmatic cell-free DNA, we developed a patented method for detection and absolute quantification of virus DNA. Application of this method to HCMV could improve NIPT diagnosis in a near future. Find out more here
